2. A Film Distributor…
• Purchases a movie
• Decides the most appropriate
audience for the film
• Decides the amount of copies to
pay for
• Presents the film to buyers
3. Which film distributor would we use for our
thriller?
For my thriller I would choose Momentum Pictures to distribute my film because they have
made similar movies to my thriller before and would have the closely related experience
Momentum movies that are stylistically similar to my thriller
are…
• Woman In Black
• Insidious
• A Walk Among The Tombstones
4. Our Distributor Would…
• Make a release date of spring that will avoid
competition
• Decide amount and price of copies
• Help gain publicity for our thriller
• Promote our product
5. My release pattern would be a blanket
release pattern because we will start off
locally as we are independent and then we
will gain notoriety through word of mouth.
6. Momentum would gain publicity by…
• Addressing the target audience as 16-24 year old males
• Creating excitement through Facebook advertisement
• Add the thriller to their Halloween movie bundle
• Release on DVD and digital
• Bring the movie to both USA and Canada, to widen audience
• They would be able to sell off our thriller to a subscription
service such as Netflix
